About this study

Official title: Prevalence and Predictors of Chronic Critical Illness in Patients With Acute Respiratory Failure

Chronic Critical Illness (CCI) is a condition associated to patients surviving an acute phase of disease and respiratory failure (ARF) although remaining dependent on mechanical ventilation (MV). The prevalence and the underlying mechanisms of CCI have not been elucidated in this population.An observational prospective cohort study was undertaken at the Respiratory Intensive Care Unit (RICU) of the University Hospital of Modena (Italy) from January 2016 to January 2018. Patients mechanically ventilated with ARF in this unit were enrolled. Demographics, diagnosis, severity scores (APACHEII, SOFA, SAPSII) and clinical conditions (septic shock, infections, acute respiratory distress syndrome [ARDS]) were recorded on admission. Respiratory mechanics and inflammatory-metabolic blood parameters were recorded on admission and within the first seven days of stay. All these variables were tested as potential predictors of CCI through appropriate univariate and multivariate analysis.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Prevalence of CCI among patients admitted to Respiratory Intensive Care Unit (RICU) for Acute Respiratory Failure

    The presence of CCI was defined as the need to perform tracheostomy in ICU associated with prolonged MV (the need for ventilatory support for more than 21 consecutive days for at least 6 h per day

    Measured: 60 days from RICU admission

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Critical Illness, run by University of Modena and Reggio Emilia.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 10 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Mar 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Prevalence of CCI among patients admitted to Respiratory Intensive Care Unit (RICU) for Acute Respiratory Failure (time frame: 60 days from RICU admission). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 23 Mar 2022.
